Advance Auto Parts’ Black Friday Sale is just around the corner. This week-long event promises savings on a wide range of car essentials and accessories. Here’s what you can likely expect this year, based on last year’s sale highlights and promotional trends.
Sale Dates and Duration
Advance Auto Parts’ Black Friday 2025 Sale is expected to launch on Tuesday, November 25, 2025, and run through the week, ending on Cyber Monday, December 1, 2025. This will give you almost an entire week to take advantage of discounts, whether in-store or online. Cyber Monday might bring additional offers or extended deals, but the core of the sale is likely to be consistent throughout the week.
Anticipated Discounts and Promo Codes
One of the standout deals during Advance Auto Parts’ Black Friday events is often a sitewide discount code. This year, it’s expected that you will be able to get 20% off orders over $100 on regularly priced items when shopping online. Last year, the code for this discount was “BFCM20,” so we might see something similar in 2025.
A few details to keep in mind about this offer:
- The discount typically does not apply to gift cards, motor oil, commercial tools and equipment, or batteries.
- Core charges, shipping and handling fees, taxes, and other surcharges aren’t included in the $100 qualifying order total.
- There’s a maximum discount of $50 per order, so the savings cap is something to consider for larger purchases.
Deals on Specific Products
Along with the site-wide promo code, Advance Auto Parts’ Black Friday Sale typically features category-specific discounts or product bundles during the event. Here are some deals that we saw last year:
Wiper Blades
- Shoppers could get $8 off instantly with the purchase of two Bosch Icon front wiper blades. Bosch is known for durable and high-performance wiper blades, making this a practical deal for drivers needing replacements ahead of winter weather.
Brake Pads and Rotors
- A discount of 15% in-store or 20% online was available when buying any set of Carquest Brake Pads and two Carquest Rotors or a set of Carquest Brake Shoes with two Carquest Drums.
Headlights
- Customers could receive $10 off by mail when purchasing a twin-pack or two single packs of Sylvania SilverStar Ultra headlights. This mail-in rebate was limited to one per household.
Antifreeze
- Prestone OE Ready-to-Use Antifreeze was offered for $19.99, a nice discount for anyone prepping their vehicle for colder months.
What to Buy During the Sale
1. Routine Maintenance Supplies
Products like brake pads, rotors, antifreeze, and wiper blades are staples for vehicle maintenance. If you’re due for replacements in these areas, Black Friday is an excellent time to shop. The discounts, especially on brands like Carquest and Bosch, make this a cost-effective way to keep your car in good shape.
2. Lighting Upgrades
Deals on Sylvania SilverStar Ultra headlights are likely to appeal to drivers looking for better visibility without breaking the bank. Upgraded headlights can make a big difference in night driving, and the mail-in rebate helps offset the cost.
3. Winter Prep Essentials
Prestone antifreeze or other winter-specific items like snow brushes, de-icing sprays, or even battery chargers might be part of the sale lineup. Black Friday is a smart time to prepare your car for the colder months.
4. General Parts and Accessories
The 20% off promo code is a great way to save on regularly priced items that don’t often go on sale. Use this discount for parts and accessories that may not be featured in other deals, such as cabin air filters, oil filters, or even tools for your garage.
